[Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] _
[Bbm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Fm] When [Eb] I first set eyes [Fm] on you, _ [Db] _
[Ab] _ [Bbm] first [Fm] you beat me up, [Ab] then you kissed [Eb] me too.
[Fm] _ [Eb] We'd throw stones into [Fm] the sea, [Db] _
[Ab] _ [Bbm] there [Fm] were no others [Ab] there, just [Eb] you and me.
[Fm] _ [Eb] Across the bridge and [Fm] down the lane, [Db] _
_ [Ab] _ [Bbm] [Fm] on you I loved you [Ab] then, you said [Eb] you did the same.
_ [Db] [Ab] Oh Maggie, _ [Db] what have [Ab] you done?
[Db] I [Ab] should have seen it coming, to your side [Eb] I'd run.
_ [Db] [Ab] Oh Maggie, [Db] come to me [Ab] tonight, _ [Db] [Ab] I will wait up for you, make sure [Eb] you're alright, [Fm] I miss [Eb] you.
_ [Fm] _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Fm] You [Eb] taught me how to [Fm] sink or swim, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] when [Fm] I was scared that [Ab] day, you just [Eb] pushed me in.
[Fm] _ [Eb] And when nobody [Fm] was around, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] you [Fm] let me kiss you [Ab] then, prepare the [Eb] love I found.
[Fm] I [Eb] said I'd never [Fm] let you go, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] you [Fm] just smiled at [Ab] me, how was [Eb] I to know?
[Db] _ [Ab] Oh Maggie, [Db] what am [Ab] I to do?
[Db] How [Ab] can I live with only memories [Eb] of you?
[Db] _ [Ab] Oh Maggie, [Db] tell [Ab] me the truth, [Db] when your [Ab] ship was sinking, did you [Eb] think it through?
[Fm] I [Eb] miss you.
[Fm] _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [Eb] _ [Fm] You [Eb] were the fountain [Fm] of my youth, [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] [Fm] and when I fumbled, [Ab] you showed me what to [Eb] do.
[Fm] And [Eb] when we were [Fm] both seventeen, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] you [Fm] left me standing [Ab] there, but you [Eb] were never mean.
[Fm] And [Eb] when I saw you [Fm] out with him, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] he [Fm] looked much older, [Ab] and you looked [Eb] very thin.
[Fm] I [Eb] hadn't heard from [Fm] you in years, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] and [Fm] then your mama [Ab] called, she couldn't [Eb] speak for tears.
[Fm] She [Eb] said you left [Fm] me, you know, [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] _ [Fm] inside my pocket, [Ab] with these [Eb] words you wrote.
[Db] _ [Ab] Hey darling boy, [Db] don't you [Ab] cry for me, [Db] I [Ab] am forever yours, now that [Eb] I am free.
[Db] We'll [Ab] be together, [Db] through stones into [Ab] the sea, _ [Db] there'll be [Ab] no others there, just you [Eb] and me.
[Fm] I [Eb] miss [Fm] you. _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] [Bbm] Maggie's gone, [Fm] _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ [Fm] _ _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] I [Eb] think you came the other [Fm] night.
[Db] _ [Ab] _
[Bbm] You stroke [Fm] my brow, [Ab] your eyes are full [Eb] of light. _
[Fm] It [Eb] may have only been [Fm] a dream, [Db] _ [Ab] _
[Bbm] [Fm] but I will walk with you [Ab] to places [Eb] I never [Fm] have [Eb] been.
_ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ [Ab]
